Abstract

Contemporary open source JAVA technologies implemented within the EURANOS project for thecross-platform re-engineering of the decision support system RODOS (JRODOS) were used alsoto redesign the Hydrological Dispersion Module (HDM) of this system. JHDM – thehydrological model chain of JRODOS contains models to simulate the radionuclide transportin the system “atmospheric fallout on watershed – river net” and calculate the doses viaaquatic pathways. JHDM used for this purpose a limited number of the input parameters tocharacterize the hydrological properties of the catchment/river network of interest. Thepilot implementation of JHDM for the Vistula river basin carried out by POLATOM andsupported by the national hydrological institute, demonstrated good perspectives of theapproach used in JHDM for the decision support in cases of accidental contamination ofwater systems. Particular needs for further improvements of the JHDM software system havebeen identified.
